Match Analysis

Fiorentina's recent run of form has been less than stellar, with a draw and two losses in their last three outings. They managed a 2-2 draw at home against Bologna, but suffered defeats away to Inter and Milan, conceding a total of five goals in these two matches. Their average goals scored in the last five games stands at 1.25, which is slightly higher than their expected goals of 1.7025, suggesting some inefficiency in front of goal. Defensively, they have been porous, with an average of 2.25 goals conceded per game. In contrast, Lecce's recent performances include a narrow home loss to league leaders Napoli and a 2-3 defeat away at Udinese, alongside a goalless draw with Sassuolo. They have managed to score an average of 1.0 goal per game but have a lower expected goals tally of 0.5175, indicating potential struggles in creating quality scoring opportunities. Defensively, they have conceded 1.75 goals on average in their last five matches, yet they have managed to keep two clean sheets, showing some defensive resilience.

Final Prediction

Fiorentina is predicted to have the upper hand primarily due to their home advantage and marginally better offensive metrics. The key factor to watch will be how effectively Fiorentina can capitalize on their chances, considering Lecce's sporadic defensive solidity. With both teams eager to climb out of the relegation zone, this match promises to be a tightly contested battle.
